' The churches are being asked to strive for this goal, "because the presence of the Christian impact in the effort to build the peace of the world is critical," according to Dr. A. L. Warnshuis, executive vice president of the organization. "Unless the Christian church does its utmost to help accomplish a new world, humanity will not soon again be impressed by the Christian teaching. Our behavior in the next 10 years will have an age-long effect upoh the future of Christian work, and upon the direction of civilization," he added.

The supply of these concentrates was Inadequate to meet the demand of the greatly expanded poultry industry, and > the greater use of plant-protein concentrates became a necessity. The necessity for conserving animal-protein concentrates and using all the soybean oil meal possible suggested studies relating to the possibility of eliminating protein concentrates derived from animal sources.
